At the University of Exeter we're renowned for ground-breaking and inspiring research in Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences, with 17 of our departments ranked in the UK's top 15 for world-leading activity.

It's part of the reason why we've recently been named The Sunday Times University of the Year 2012-13.

We're delighted to offer up to 20 new Advanced Research Fellowships (3 year fellowship term leading to Lectureship), to support the University's Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (HASS)Research Strategy in the following thematic areas:

* Environment and Sustainability * Global Uncertainties

* Identities and Beliefs * Medical Humanities

* Science, Technology and Culture * Societal and Lifestyle Shifts

Successful candidates will be research scholars of first class achievement and / or potential and expected to have completed a PhD or be of postdoctoral standing. Candidates should ideally have published (or be in an advanced stage in preparing for publication) substantial high-quality research. The Fellowship is intended to develop researchers towards permanent Lectureships within the relevant discipline on successful completion of the fellowship award.
